Certificate of Authenticity

This is one of the "Salute to Hong Kong Heritage Buildings" series painted by the artist - Western Market was originally the old Western Market (North Block), which was identified as one of the Declared Monuments in 1990. At present, it is the oldest market building surviving in Hong Kong. The market was converted into a centre of traditional traders, arts and crafts in 1991 and renamed as “the Western Market”. Refurbishment took place again in 2003. Adopting the concept of adaptive reuse, the building has been brought back to their useful economic life by accommodating theme restaurants and boutique shops that turning the building and the vicinity into a place for lifestyle shopping and leisure activities.
